Tesla is hiring an Autopilot Test Engineer in Shanghai, a move that signals continued groundwork for the validation of Full Self-Driving (FSD) in China. As observed by Tesla watchers, local authorities in Shanghai's Nanhui New City within Lingang have previously authorized a fleet of Teslas to run advanced driving tests on public roads. This marked one of the first instances where foreign automakers were permitted to test autonomous driving systems under real traffic conditions in China.

Hurry Mode was the most evident, as it refused to go more than 10 MPH over the speed limit on freeways. It would routinely hold up traffic at this speed, and flipping it into Mad Max mode was sort of over the top. Hurry is what I use most frequently, and it had become somewhat unusable with v14.2.1. It seemed as if Speed Profiles should be more associated with both passing and lane-changing frequency.

Rent a Tesla and see how it makes every errand, commute, and road trip more fun. While it's yours, try Full Self-Driving (Supervised) and control and monitor your vehicle with the Tesla app. Schedule your rental for three to seven days starting at $60 per day (plus taxes and fees) and charge for free at any Tesla-owned Supercharger. Order your own Tesla within seven days of your rental to get up to a $250 credit toward your purchase.

A South Australian Tesla driver is thanking his Model Y's Full Self-Driving system after a mysterious object, possibly a meteorite, slammed into his car's windshield while it had FSD engaged. The impact sent hot glass fragments flying through the cabin as the vehicle continued driving without human input through the darkness. Experts have noted that if confirmed, this could be the world's first recorded meteorite collision involving a Tesla.

The US main transportation safety regulator said on Friday it is seeking information from Tesla about a new driver assistance mode dubbed Mad Max that operates at higher speeds than other versions. Some drivers on social media report that Tesla vehicles using the more aggressive version of its full self-driving (FSD) system could operate above posted speed limits. NHTSA is in contact with the manufacturer to gather additional information, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said in a statement.

Tesla is recalling more than 63,000 Cybertrucks in the U.S. because the front lights are too bright, which may cause a distraction to other drivers and increase the risk of a collision. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said that the recall includes certain Cybertrucks with a model year between 2024 and 2026. The vehicles were made between Nov. 13, 2023, and Oct. 11, 2025, with operating software versions prior to 2025.38.3.
